A bit of both to be honest but I would usually game at night so mostly with a headset. If people solely play competitive online shooters then I guess that's up to them, I would also turn vibrations off for cod but that's about it really everything else i enjoy the extra level of feedback.

I’m the same really, have vibration to lowest setting (elite 2 controller, to its rumble options in its app settings) other than multiplayer shooters.

It’s fun and all, but it’s not really as much a game changer as people will end up reverting to their preferences again
 
It's a kids game!! Me and a friend played a bit of it and had to get rid as the dialogue was so cheesy and naff. It was one big action movie cliche (with uninspired combat) but the really lame kind.

I mean, why even play games?
Uncharted 2 was simply one of the best games ever made. Incredible game.

:drool:

Uncharted 2, god that was a fecking good game.
Uncharted 2 was the game that reconciled me with video games. I don't think I've ever had as much fun as when playing that.
It's what got my back into single player games. Before that it was all sports or shooters.
Game of the year ?
Uncharted series is brilliant, Uncharted 2 was my favourite but 4 edges it out for me as the best in the series. Loved the ending and it was more than just big fights/explosions/battles - there was a human element to it which made me care about about the characters more than the previous Uncharted games.
Brilliant game, really enjoyed the story and the scenery, downfall was some of the gameplay (enemies everywhere, precise grenades and a few other niggles)

Would easily be a 9/10 for me.
 
Loved uncharted, I don’t think it’s aged well outside the graphics which still hold up, but at the time it was a breath of fresh air! But Naughty Dog have shown excellent evolution with TLOU2 which I loved.
 
Can someone help me? What is better Forza Horizon 3 or 4?

4 is more expensive.
 
Seems there’s a few grown ass men getting butthurt about their baby games in here.
 
It's only a week away now but I have zero excitement about getting a Series X. 4K HDR does nothing for me. I'm looking forward to the load times and that's about it!

Cancel. It isn’t for you.

Stick with what you got as it’s tried and trusted. Why disrupt your current setup? All that moving around, waiting for delivery and then plugging it in. Sounds like too much hassle.

If you have no excitement over a new console why on earth are you getting one? :lol:
 
What about PS5? Besides sackboy, everything else is playable on PS4 or PS3. We been through this.
I’ve said neither console is particularly fantastic for games at launch. But there’s lots to look forward to in the next 12-18 months with PS5, unless I’ve missed game announcements I don’t see what MS have up their sleeve in the same time frame?

Forza, Halo, state of decay 3 and free burgers. What’s wrong with that?

Maybe even Starfield as Bethesda announced Fallout 4 three months before the game was out. I expect that to be out in the next 2 years. Fable and Avowed look like 2022 games.

Sony have announced GT sport, GOW and Horizon 2. Horizon is cross gen like Halo. There’s a lot of games which both haven’t announced. Naughty dogs have two teams, so one of them should be working on something that’s out in next two years. Silent Hill by Kojima has been rumoured and could be shown at this years game awards. MS have quite a few studios who haven’t shown anything including the initiative. Then you have the other zenimax studios they acquired that should be working on stuff.

Because I've been playing on an Xbox Series S for years, so there will be a difference, but if I had not promised to give me One S to someone else I might have cancelled by now.

Buy another one s and give the old one.

Problem solved. Anything else? I can help you with your resetera ban issues too.

I'm not buying a One S in 2020! It won't even have games for it after next year. I'm buying a Series X cause I'm going to need one to keep playing games. Doesn't make me excited for it, though.

Bit sad really.
 
Yeah, it is. A PS5 doesn't excite me, either. I'm getting too old for this shit.

Feeling the same, tbh. I'm getting an XSX because I'll get one eventually anyway and I have the money at the moment, but aside from loading times improving I'm not really excited about the purchase. It feels more like a half step at this point for QOL improvements.
 
What games do you play?
COD. And I've found myself becoming less and less interested in other games. I'm going to buy Cyberpunk and Cold War. After that? I've no idea what my next game will be. Probably some crap on Gamepass.

Try Apex. Might make you more cultured as a gamer.

Just playing Cod is a problem for a start its just the same game reskinned over and over again with no depth or appeal, makes you fall out of love of many other games as your so used to instant respawn/kill when playing online.

I sort of fell out of love with gaming and the constant push for higher resolutions and slightly prettier graphics. I've gone back to mainly PC 1080p and 144hz for most of my games, i'm not overly bothered about cutting edge graphics/resolution more the actual games themselves these days.

Game fatigue is definitely a thing though, try and mix it up.
